Anything is possible!

Becky and I decided that we really should take more advantage of the fact that "anything is possible in India...madam". Would you like a new tailor made shirt for $10. no problem. Tailor will meet you in your living room. Would you like 40 pounds of ice delivered to your house for your Saturday night party at 5pm and then again at 9pm... all for $12? done. How about calling the local market and asking them to deliver 110 pencils for the 9th grade student council project? for sure! Would you like to receive a massage every Tuesday in you own home by Yogesh, the master masseuse? Jon enjoys this luxury! Ah, India, the land of...any and everything.

Normalcy

The other day I was at the counter of my local chemist (pharmacy), and as I turned around to leave I was confronted by about 10 large cows that were migrating through the market. I was surrounded on all sides, and even had to take a step back to give them more space. I waited for them to slowly tread on until I could sneak around one and dart for my taxi where I found Jon laughing. The odd thing is, though, that I have to remind myself that cows at the pharmacy is just NOT normal (for a child of the USA).
